Leeds United will likely head into the January transfer market to try and combat their injury issues this season.
The Whites have had a number of men sideline and Marcelo Bielsa will need to look at adding depth to his squad, especially in the goalkeeping department.
The Argentine has seen Jamal Blackman head back to Chelsea after he suffered a broken leg, leaving him with just Bailey Peacock-Farrell as his only recognised senior shot-stopper.
The Northern Ireland international also had a knock recently, which meant Will Huffer made his debut for the senior side at the weekend.
However, it appears that Bielsa and Leeds have their eyes on bringing a new goalkeeper to the club once January arrives.
The England Under-21 goalkeeper has found it difficult to break into Rafa Benitez’s side, although he is rated extremely highly by the Spaniard.
The Verdict:
Woodman would be a great signing for Leeds to make and certainly one that would provide Peacock-Farrell some much-needed competition.
The Northern Ireland number one has been complacent at times, although he was the hero on Tuesday night when he saved a last minute penalty in the game against Reading at Elland Road.
Whether it is Woodman or someone else, Leeds are desperate to add someone to their squad so it is likely that a shot-stopper will arrive in January.
Leeds fans – thoughts?
